"This is your captain speaking, we will be landing shortly, so our staff advise you to buckle your seatbelts and wait for landing."

Finally, after 2 delayed flights, no sleep and no caffeine, we are finally landing. God, I hate airplanes, I swear on my strawberries if I get Jet lag, im going to be extremely upset.

Slouching back into the uncomfortable chair, I open my book back up and continue reading the cute rom-com I brought along in my carry-on.

Just as im about to finish the chapter, I look out the window of the airplane and see that we are extremely close to the ground

"Woah," I quietly exclaim, scanning the massive penthouse Dmitri kindly bought me. He insisted I didn't stay in one of those 'small, disgusting dorms', his words not mine.

Making sure the door is locked, I put my bag down, destined to go explore this gorgeous place. Walking into the kitchen, I am completely taken aback at how pretty this whole place is. Beautiful white marble counter tops, black cabinets and even...

OMG THERES TWO FRIDGES!

I race over to the fridges, opening them to find them both completely filled with STRAWBERRIES. YUMMY. As I look deeper into the fridge, I find a note. Opening it, I read out loud,

"Dear, cupcake

I thought I would get you a little welcome present, so what's better then two whole fridges stocked with strawberries. I know you are obsessed with them, so I hope you like it.

I miss you already baby sis.

Love, Dmitri xx."

I love you too Dm, God, I miss him so much.

Suddenly I hear my tummy grumble, so I decide that before I go nap, I will go get something to eat. I grab my phone and look up the nearest cafe.

After grabbing my Washington University hoodie and quickly chucking it on. I grab my phone and head out of the door. Hailing over a taxi, I grab the door and jump in, giving him the destination and finally slumping back into my seat.

Thanking the taxi driver, I hop out of the car and make my way up to the cafe. I open the door and am greeted with the ding of a bell. Walking in, I stop in my tracks just for a second and breath in a lovely smell of caffeine. Home.

I walk up to the register and order what I have been dying for the last 12 hours. Coffee and a macaroon, strawberry of course. Once I hear my name being called for my order, I go up and grab it, but unfortunately, as soon as turnaround I run into something, a chest.

oh no.

"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry I didn't see you there," I quickly apologise, failing to wipe of the coffee I spilt on the very tall man.
